Help with an Aussie Scolly

[purplepolypeater]

those thorns are its "ribs" it needs to be target fed carefully in low flow observe it digest the food to confirm no shrimp or crabs are stealing its foods. i neglected a brain coral for a bit and when i realised i moved it into a small plastic bin and drilled a ton of holes in it. the holes allowed for really low flow. i mounted the container at the top corner of my tank to allow quick and easy target feeding, without fear of predators stealing the foods. your scolymia looks like it should pull through fine with a little extra care.
good luck.

Thanks!
Yes, it's in a low flow area (tucked into my rock work about 2" off the sand bed). I will start target feeding it maybe a few times a week and hopefully with a little luck it pulls through. I had a Flame Angel for the past month or so that I just got rid of. Maybe that will help solve the problem......

best,

I really appreciate the help. I stuck him in the lower rock work off of the sand bed and he seems to be doing better.... At least puffing up when I feed him.
Hopefully the colour comes back in time.
